UARC was
established at the University of Nottingham in 2004.
The team offer a variety of services, with particular expertise
in underwater operations involving environmental impact
assessment and monitoring. A core strength of the unit is that it
is continually informed and shaped by academic research, which
keeps it at the leading edge of the field. The centre is
currently involved in a range of projects, both freshwater and
maritime, but has a particular research focus on the survey and
excavation of freshwater sites.
